The CMA Microeconomics Unit has published its first report, on competition and market power in UK labour markets.
The Microeconomics Unit was established to provide independent research on competition, innovation and productivity to the CMA and wider government.
This report charts trends in UK labour market concentration and employer market power over the past twenty years, investigates how labour market concentration is related to worker outcomes and spotlights how technologies and labour market institutions are shaping labour markets in the UK.
